The Propagandist Editor Jonathon Narvey talks with Terry Glavin, author of "Come from the Shadows: The Long and Lonely Struggle for Peace in Afghanistan" about his book. Can the war be won when Western governments are so confused about its goals and the "antiwar movement" seems so bent on providing cover for the Taliban and others who wage a proxy war against the fledgling democracy in Afghanistan?

Some see propaganda as the bottom shelf of public relations -- something regrettable "that came out of the war years". While some of The Propagandist's contributing writers have been attracted to the mischeivous brand name, others have opted to look past it as they work for the cause, while a third group of talented pundits may have been put off by the moniker entirely.

In The Propagandist's second podcast, The Propagandist Editor Jonathon Narvey talks with China-based Contributing Writer Christopher Michael Luna about the prospects for democracy in China and the so-called Jasmine Revolution. Hilarity does not ensue.
